receiving error -17709 when trying to view the GAL from Exchange 2003 on Entourage '04

[richard]

Hello,

I have a new Macintosh which I am trying to configure Entourage 2004 to
a Small business Server 2003 SP1 running Exchange SP1.

Entourage on the Mac is fully patched.
The server is running IMAP4 and File services for the Macintosh.

When I try to address a new email in the Entourage client and I
navigate the drop down list to Default Global Address List (Exchange),
and try to search on an entry in the GAL, I receive an error:
Unknown error (-17709), LDAP server error, Account: Exchange.

My current settings under the advanced tab of the Exchange account
settings are:
ldap server: FQDN of my SBS 2003 server
This server requires me to login is CHECKED.
Override current LDAP port is CHECKED and set to 3268 and search base
is set to: cn=users, dn=ttag, dc=int Our internal FQDN is ttag.int

Send/Receive emails works fine and I receive emails immediately from
the Exchange server without problems.

Any help here is welcome as I would like to get the LDAP configured for
the Exchange Server GAL.

Thanks.

You should not need to check the OVERRIDE current LDAP port, and you
can leave the search base blank. That is how we have it set.
